Abstract

Organizations and Natural Environment (ONE) research has been published in mainstream management journals and an increasing array of specialty journals dedicated to ONE topics since the formation of the ONE interest group more than a decade ago. While the abundance of outlets for ONE research may be perceived as a positive development for the field, it also raises difficulties for establishing credibility for the relative quality of ONE scholarship. This study is the first of its kind to assess the journal quality of mainstream management and specialty journals that publish ONE‐related research. I triangulated methods by first utilizing a three‐stage process to survey senior ONE scholars and then utilized a footprint approach to rate 25 journals publishing ONE research. Results are compared with those of previous studies and are discussed in light of senior scholar commentary. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
